Check the rubber seal for leaks. Use dollar bill and slide out from between the seal and the frame. Should be snug.
It could also be an air leak in a seam. We had that problem with a new refrigerator and the repair man just caulked the seams and fixed it.

There is a defrost timer on the unit. It is supposed to come on and melt the ice that forms on the coils in the evaporator. IF you get a lot of ice built up or something is wrong with the timer, it wont melt the ice or it wont come back on to cool the unit.

I keep min two notches from the coldest setting.A great way to check where you should set yous,is ice cream.Put an open container of ice cream in the freezer,and turn the freezer to coldest.The next day try to scoop the ice cream.If the ice cream is hard the freezer is too cold.Adjust the freezer two notches ,and try the ice cream the next day.Repeat till you are happy with the hardness of the ice cream.It should be easy to scoop but not too soft.

Ice cream has to be colder than 0 degrees C /32 degrees F. You need a cheap thermometer If your Ice maker Ice is not sweating in the bin, -10 degrees F ice stops sweating. you need not to sweat the freezer untill your cheap freezer thermometer can be compared to -10 degrees F

Open the freezer door.Pull the ice bin forward about 3 inches.Push the ice bin to the rear of the freezer until it seats and locks in place.Then try to dispense cubes.The ice bin can become dislodged from its locked position and the crushed ice solenoid activates automatically.

The Ice Maker and the Freezer/Fridge part of the unit work separate, that's why you get the ice made but the freezer can't keep it frozen.

Most likely the condenser, located in the back of the freezer is all frozen and covered with ice pluggin up the air ducts to the fridge, preventing it from cooling.

One quick solution will be unplugging the refrigerator and allowing it to defrost on it’s own or remove the freezer's back panel and using a heat gun or hair dryer to melt the ice, this will take about 20 to 30 min..

There are various reasons this type of problem:

The temp. controls are not set properly. Set controls according to manufacturer recomendation.
The small fan in the freezer is not working,
The defros timer is not working or,
The defrost heater coil is busted.

Once the ice is melted, plug unit back in and check for unit reactions. You should be able to hear the freezer fan working. Also, you'll hear about 4 to 6 times a day the defrost heater melting the ice in the back of the freezer, if NOT, check heater coil for continuity.

1. Remove all of the food from inside the freezer and place it into the ice chest. Use more than one ice chest, if necessary. Cover the food with ice from a 10 lb. bag of ice. Alternatively, place all of the food from your freezer into the refrigerator compartment, packed tightly together.
2. Place one or two 10 lb. bags of ice into one or two large bowls inside the refrigerator compartment to keep the food chilled. Keep the door to the refrigerator tightly closed and avoid opening it during the freezer defrosting process.
3. Unplug the unit and leave the freezer door open.
4. Let the freezer defrost overnight or for at least eight hours.
5. Use the towels to wipe up the melted ice.
6. Plug in a hair dryer and direct it to the interior of the freezer to melt any remaining ice from the walls and door. Be sure to direct it into the vents of the freezer, too.
7. Wipe up any water from ice melted with the hair dryer from inside and around the freezer.
8. Plug the freezer back into the outlet, and return food still solidly frozen to the freezer compartment from the ice chest or refrigerator. Use any thawed foods within a day or two or discard.

Most modern freezers don't need to be defrosted, but should be washed
out and cleaned periodically. Following are steps for defrosting
freezers that need it -generally when ice builds up to a thickness
between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch.

Step 1
Turn the freezer off. Controls may be inside the refrigerator.

Step 2
Remove all food from the freezer and store in an ice chest while you are defrosting.

Step 3
Remove
ice in the freezer compartment. This can be done by: a) letting the
freezer door stand open until ice melts; b) putting a pan of hot water
in the freezer compartment and closing the door, then checking for
melting ice and reheating the water every 10 to 15 minutes; c) using a
hair dryer by aiming warm air at ice in freezer until it melts.

Step 4
Pick up ice and water as it melts with a dishcloth or sponge and deposit into sink.

Step 5
Use a sponge or dishcloth and a bowl of warm water to thoroughly wipe out inside of freezer once the freezer is cleared of ice.

Step 6
Turn the freezer back on, close the door and let run for 10 to 15 minutes before returning food to the freezer.
